ALMOND SYRUP CAKE
The combination of almond flour and self-rising flour gives this cake a tender, nutty crumb, while a drizzle of amaretto syrup keeps it irresistibly moist.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 160°C (325°F). Line a 24cm round springform tin with non-stick baking paper. Place the eggs, sugar and vanilla extract in the bowl of an electric mixer and whisk for 12-15 minutes or until pale and tripled in volume. Add the flour, almond meal, butter, lemon rind and liqueur and gently fold to combine. Pour the mixture into the tin and spread evenly. Sprinkle with the flaked almonds and bake for 30-35 minutes or until cooked when tested with a skewer. Allow to cool completely in the tin.
- While the cake is cooling, make the amaretto syrup. Place the water, sugar, vanilla bean and seeds and liqueur in a small saucepan over medium heat and stir to combine. Bring to the boil and cook for 10-12 minutes or until reduced. Allow the syrup to cool slightly and discard the vanilla pod.
- Remove the cake from the tin and place on a cake stand or plate. Drizzle with the amaretto syrup to serve.

Steps:
- 1. Combine flour, baking powder, semolina pinch of salt and ground almonds
- 2. Blend the sugar and butter in a large bowl, adding 1 beaten egg with the flour mixture. Knead the mixture until it forms a smooth paste. Make small walnut-size balls with the mixture, using a little butter on your hands to prevent sticking.
- 3. Place balls on a greased baking sheet and slightly flatten the balls. Press a blanched almond into the center of each ball. Brush with a beaten egg yolk and bake at 350 degrees F for 25-30 minutes.
- 4. To make the syrup, bring the sugar and water to a boil, then simmer uncovered for 15 minutes. Add the lemon juice and allow syrup to cool. Pour over the syrup and refrigerate. Serve chilled with cream, if desired.
GLAZED ALMOND MINI CAKES
When my husband and I honeymooned in Austria, there were little pink rum cakes that caught my eye in every bakery we'd visit, they were so pretty! When I got back I created this version inspired by them, swapping out the traditional Rum soak for an almond soak!

Steps:
- Set an oven rack in the middle position. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Grease the bottom of an 8-by-12 inch metal baking pan and line the bottom with parchment. Then grease and flour the bottom and sides of the pan. Set aside.
- For the cake: sift together the flour and baking powder. Add the salt and stir to combine.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add 1 cup of butter and sugar and beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Using a rubber spatula, scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl, as needed. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating on medium speed and scraping down the sides of the bowl between additions. Add the vanilla and almond extracts and beat to combine. On low speed, mix in half of the flour mixture, then mix in the milk. Mix in remaining flour mixture until just combined. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and bake until a tester comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool slightly, then unmold and cool completely.
- To make the cake filling, using a serrated knife, cut the cake into an 8x8-inch square. Set aside. Crumble the portion of the cake that was removed and reserve 2 1/2 cups. Add the remainder of the cake crumbs to a large mixing bowl along with the remaining 1/4 cup melted butter, jam and almonds. Mix well (your hands are the best tool here) to make a spreadable filling.
- To assemble the cake, use a serrated knife to split the cake crosswise into 2 halves. Arrange both halves so they're facing cut-side up. Brush the cake with about 2/3 of the cooled almond syrup. With a small offset spatula, gently spread the jammy filling over the entire bottom half of the cake and top with the top half of the cake, cut side down. Press gently to adhere. Flip the cake so the flat bottom is now facing up, to create a flat top. Freeze the cake until firm, 1 hour.
- With a serrated knife, cut off the rough sides on the frozen cake and cut into 16 squares. Set the cake on a cooling rack over a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Coat the cakes 1 at a time by pouring the icing around the edges and letting it drip down to coat the sides, then fill in the top. (Set the bowl over hot water and stir if it begins to thicken before you are done.) Top with sprinkles or non pareils before the icing begins to set.
- Combine the sugar and water in a small saucepan over low heat and cook to dissolve the sugar, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat. Add the almond extract and stir to combine. Cool completely.
- Melt the chocolate chips or candy melts in a double boiler and stir until smooth.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, add the confectioner's sugar, corn syrup, hot water and vanilla. Mix on low speed until smooth. Add the melted chocolate and continue to mix to make a very smooth, pourable icing, about the consistency of molasses. Add food coloring as desired.

ORANGE & ALMOND CAKE WITH GLACE ORANGES & SYRUP
This is one of those 'good news' and 'bad news' recipes. The bad news is this cake takes a lot of time to make. The good news is that it isn't actually difficult - just time-consuming. The bad news is that it's quite expensive. The good news is that it's really worth it for a special occasion. To make it easy on yourself, prepare it over two days. The glace oranges have to be soaked overnight, so I'd prepare them, boil the oranges and make the syrup on one day, then make the cake and finish the glace oranges the next day, and serve the cake on the third day. I think it's probably better for keeping in the fridge for a day before it's served. I was really, really sceptical about making this cake, but did it because a friend particularly wanted it for her birthday. To my surprise it turned out dense and moist and delicious and full of orangey flavour. It was a real hit. It's actually not the most attractive cake in the world when you take it out of the oven, but add the glace oranges to the top (buy them if you don't want to make them yourself) and it comes up quite presentable. Served with the Orange and Sauternes Sauce and a dollop of thick cream you'll forget all about what a pain it was to make. :-) In fact, my friend says her neighbour turned up at breakfast time the next day asking if there was any more of 'that cake' left! This recipe is adapted from one that appeared in Australia's "Better Homes and Gardens" magazine. The syrup recipe is pinched from Chrissyo's Orange and Almond Cake Recipe #38551 .

Steps:
- To prepare the oranges for the cake: Place the oranges into a large saucepan (I used a stockpot, but something the size of a Dutch Oven would do), cover oranges with hot water from the tap, place on a medium heat, and bring water up to boiling point.
- I had a problem with the oranges floating, so I placed a heatproof glass pie plate on top to keep them submerged.
- Reduce heat and simmer oranges for 40-50 minutes or until the skin is very tender - your fingernail should easily penetrate the skin.
- Check water from time to time and top up if necessary.
- Remove oranges from pan and allow to cool, then cut oranges into quarters, remove any seeds, and leave on a plate, uncovered, at room temperature, to dry a little for 1-2 hours.
- Now, unless you're going to make the cake immediately, place the orange quarters into a sealed container and store in the refrigerator until needed.
- To make the syrup: The syrup will keep so it can be made well ahead.
- Just place the orange juice, sugar and sauternes in a saucepan over a medium heat and stir until the sugar dissolves.
- Reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes until the liquid is reduced by half.
- From time to time, and especially at the end, scrape off any scum that forms on the top.
- Pour into a heat proof jug or jar, cool, cover and refrigerate until needed.
- Note: the syrup is supposed to thicken as it cools, but don't expect a thick syrup.
- To make the glace oranges: Remove any seeds from the orange slices and arrange them (with the rind still on) in a large, shallow, heatproof container.
- Cover oranges with boiling water and allow to stand at room temperature overnight.
- The next day, drain the oranges.
- In a large frying pan, place the sugar, water and vanilla bean and stir over a low heat until the sugar dissolves.
- Now, add the orange slices in a single layer, and simmer, uncovered over a low heat for an hour.
- Remove oranges and arrange in one layer on a plate and cover with the syrup. Cover and keep in the refrigerator until you want to decorate the cake - I did this just prior to serving it.
- If you find, as I did, the syrup went toffee-ish and the oranges stuck to the plate after keeping, just whack it, uncovered, into the microwave for a minute or so to melt the syrup.
- To make the cake: Spray a 22cm (9") springform tin with a double layer of silicone (baking) paper.
- Preheat oven to 170°C.
- Now, put the boiled orange quarters (peel and all) into a food processor and pulse until quite smooth - you won't get it completely smooth, but do your best.
- Add the eggs and pulse again, trying to get the smoothest mixture possible.
- Add the sugar, the flour (if using), the baking powder and as much of the almond meal as you can without overloading your food processor and pulse until you have a smooth batter.
- If necessary, pour batter into a big mixing bowl and stir in the rest of the almond meal.
- Pour the batter into the prepared tin and bake at 170C for 45-50 minutes or until a skewer, inserted in the centre, comes out clean.
- Allow to cool a little, then release the springform pan, and invert the cake onto a dinner plate and carefully remove the baking paper from the base and sides.
- Invert back onto another plate, allow to cool, then cover and refrigerate until needed.
- To decorate cake: Use your own judgement, but this is what I did.
- Pour a couple of tablespoons of the sauce over the top of the cake and smooth with the back of a spoon.
- Cut some of the glace orange slices into halves and arrange around the outside of the cake.
- Leave three or four slices whole, cut halfway through and then 'twist' to sit upright in a circle in the centre of the cake.
- Using a pastry brush, use the syrup from the glace oranges to glaze the sides of the cake - microwave the syrup briefly to bring it back to liquid consistency if necessary.
- Tuck some pretty flowers (I used daisies) amongst the oranges on top of the cake.
- To serve: Serve small slices (it's rich) with the syrup (cold or at room temperature) and a dollop of thick cream.
- Swear never to make this cake again!

- In a small nonreactive saucepan, combine the sugar, lemon juice and lemon zest with 1/2 cup of water. Bring to a boil over moderate heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Simmer over moderately low heat for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat; let steep.
- Preheat the oven to 325°. Oil the bottom and sides of a 9-by-3-inch springform pan and line the bottom with parchment paper; oil the paper. Evenly coat the bottom and sides with the matzo meal, tapping out any excess. Refrigerate the pan.
- In a large bowl, use a wooden spoon to mix together the granulated sugar, almonds, lemon zest and egg yolks.
- In a large bowl, preferably copper, whisk the egg whites until they form stiff peaks. Stir one-quarter of the egg whites into the almond mixture to lighten it. Using a large rubber spatula, gently fold in the remaining egg whites in 3 additions.
